  2. Review and update your company details:
    • Company Name — Your business name as it appears throughout RouteMate.
    • Address — Your company’s primary business address.
    • Phone Number — Main contact number.
    • DOT Number — Your U.S. Department of Transportation number, used in ELD compliance records.
    • MC Number — Your Motor Carrier number, if applicable.
    • Time Zone — The default time zone for your company. This affects how times are displayed across the dashboard. Time zone cannot be changed.
  3. Click Save to apply any changes.

Note: Your DOT number is critical for ELD compliance. Make sure it is entered correctly, as it is included in driver logs and data transfers during roadside inspections.

Feature Activation

Section titled “Feature Activation”

RouteMate offers a modular set of features that can be activated based on your fleet’s needs. To manage feature activation:

Note: Some features may require additional hardware (for example, GPS devices for geofence tracking) or a plan upgrade. Contact RouteMate support if you have questions about feature availability.

Company-Wide Preferences

Tip: Setting sensible company-wide defaults saves time for every fleet manager on your team. Individual users can still override some preferences in their own user settings.
